Team Group has launched a new AiO cooler that not only cools the CPU, but also the SSD.descriptive name T-Force Siren DUO360 aRGB CPU and SSD AiO liquid cooler Compatibility with the latest CPUs/sockets such as Intel LGA 1700 and AMD AM5, and the ability to lower the temperature of PCIe Gen 5.0 SSDs by more than 50% are many other key attractions.
The T-Force Siren DUO 360 aRGB CPU and SSD AiO cooler features a 360mm radiator and three 120mm fans. It’s about as powerful as it’s available to mainstream consumers today. Guaranteed compatibility with upcoming Intel 13th Gen Core ‘Raptor Lake’ CPUs and new AMD Ryzen 7000 ‘Raphael’ CPUs, so could be a good fit for high-end processors that put out quite a bit of heat under stress. I have.
Another “hot” component that is expected to become more prevalent in new/next-gen systems is the M.2 SSD, which connects via the PCIe Gen 5.0 interface. While these are attractive due to their potentially superior transfer speeds, they can get hot under sustained load, leading to thermal throttling issues. It comes with a heatsink for SSDs, but enthusiast PCIe 5.0 drives may require active cooling to ensure consistent performance. Therefore, integrating an SSD cooling plate into the AiO is a very attractive idea.
Team Group used a bare T-Force Cardea SSD PCIe Gen4 x4 and a bare unnamed PCIe Gen5 SSD to measure the SSD cooling benefits provided by the T-Force Siren DUO360 aRGB CPU and SSD AiO Liquid Cooler. I did my own testing. The cooler seems to do a pretty good job of keeping the SSD cool both at idle and at full load.
The design looks competent overall, and the official specs show that the right components and materials are used for this kind of device. Fan specs, speed, and noise characteristics are all within acceptable limits. , and the cooling block is made of aluminum, both with copper contact plates.Team Group backs the product with a two-year warranty.
The cooler is also designed with visual flair. Along with the striking white coloring, there are plenty of addressable RGB zones. Each of the three hydraulic bearing fans has its own set of aRGB LEDs. There is also a circular dual-mirror aRGB water block attached to the CPU. As well as a removable magnetic aRGB module that fits in an SSD waterblock (or anywhere else you like).
The lighting effects provided by this T-Force AiO cooler can be controlled and synchronized with all usual mainstream systems: Asus Aura Sync, ASRock-Polychrome Sync, Biostar Advanced Vivid LED DJ, Gigabyte RGB Fusion 2.0, MSI Mystic Light such as Sync. upon. Some of Team Group’s official product photos show the 360mm AiO in an attractive almost white build.
The T-Force Siren DUO360 aRGB CPU and SSD AiO Liquid Cooler will be available in November, priced at $399.
